Marfa Texas, had the honor to spent a few days during 2010 in that town. Reminds me of Namibia.

Had the privilege to paid a second 
visit to the USA in 2010. Working on a documentary 
on food security and environment I had the 
the chance to work in places like 
Texas,  Washington and the Gulf 
of Mexico three months after 
the BP oil spill. I took a boat trip to visit 
some of the islands ( or Bayous ) as they call it, to 
experience the effect of the oil on the environment. 
Marfa was one of those towns
where I met ranchers as they call themselves, we call them 
farmers or in this case cattle farmers. This 
experience was made possible by the 
USA cultural centre and USA embassy in Namibia.
